  • Discus fish unboxing - adding 15 new fish to my custom aquarium, and finally getting the panels fitted to complete my custom discus display tank. I talk a little about how I selected my Discus and the acclimatisation process, and how I acclimatise new discus fish with the 'drop and plop' method.

    Beautiful tank I just took my first dive in to discuss bought a couple have a 55 gallon tank so I’ll probably top it off with five so they have some room not the cheapest fish and certainly not a lazy man’s fish did you have a beautiful tank

    what size is your tank and how many tetras do you have in it? Very tastefully done.

    Ive keep discus for a little over a year now, but I never was clear on the “plop and drop” method of acclimating. I know about ammonia issues being a problem once the bag is opened, but what about ph differences from the bag water to your tank? If they are both different can that shock the fish too?

    • @AquariumAdventures

      +PBK it can, but PH shock is the lesser of two evils. Ammonia will kill a fish quicker.

    From Scotland mate? If so would be interested in any recommendations suppliers around here!

      I'm from Glasgow - but live in Sheffield now. I'd suggest RT Discus (Coatbridge) but any of the main suppliers here will ship fish if you don't like the look of theirs!

    Never heard of quarantining your new Fish huh? After a long trip like that, plus do you know the distributor quality of how they keep their fish? Scary dude!

    • @AquariumAdventures
      @AquariumAdventures  Před 5 lety +4

      That would have been a good point had I not talked about quarantining for a few minutes in this video, and pretty much every video of mine where I add new fish.
